Capitals vs Penguins Pickswise Expert Predictions

Money Line Pick
PIT Penguins Win(-105)

It’s a Thursday night Metropolitan Division battle between Alex Ovechkin’s Washington Capitals and Sidney Crosby’s Pittsburgh Penguins. The Capitals hit the ice for their 2nd game in as many nights, as the Penguins return for their first home game in 4 games. These teams are neck and neck in the division, so this should be a great contest. To get you set, here is our Capitals vs. Penguins prediction.

The Capitals looked very good in a 6-1 win against the St. Louis Blues last night, but overall, they have shown inconsistency. They are 1-3-1 in  their last 5 games, and now hit the road, which could add fatigue. As for Pittsburgh, the Penguins have lost 2 straight games, but prior to that, they amassed an impressive 6-0-2 run.  In their most-recent game against the Toronto Maple Leafs, a 3-0 lead in the third period was quickly turned into a 4-3 regulation loss. This is a result that should light a total fire under Pittsburgh, so I expect a great performance on home ice. For our Capitals vs. Penguins prediction, we are siding with the Pittsburgh Penguins on the money line.
